In the outermost shell, an oxygen atom has six electrons thus, needing two extra electrons for achieving the configuration of stable 8-electron inert gas. So, the oxygen combines with other oxygen atom to form an oxygen molecule. This bonding is known as double covalent bond.
Explanation:
- A covalent bond is also known as molecular bond. It is the chemical bond involving the electron pair sharing between the atoms.
- These pairs are called bonding pairs or shared pairs.
- They have stable balance of repulsive and attractive forces between the atoms when the electrons are shared. This is called covalent bonding.
